Halloween Movie Screenings
If you are looking for something more relaxed and chill The Metropolitan Museum of Art on Saturday will be having a special presentation of the 1966 classic of, “It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown”. Guests are encouraged to come in costume and afterward there’s a costume parade, and remember Lucy’s advice in the film: “A person should always choose a costume which is in direct contrast to their own personality.”
